Journal 64

I've only seen one other film from the Department Q series and both were good films. Once the film started, it just grabbed me and didn't let go. I'm not gonna spoil it so all I can say is give it a go if you like thrillers. I was pleased.

I was so impressed with the first movie and it has always been an impatient wait until the next instalment. I just love how the Danish can come up with such quirky characters. Sometimes the character put you off because they are so different but as time goes by you grow to love them and it is amazing how the subtle acting can convey so many emotions if you look out for them. I would be very sad if this was the last we see of these quirky characters. I just hope there will not be an English language version remake!!!

The 'Department Q' series is one the best of its type that I have had the pleasure to watch. Why has it taken so long for this the 4th instalment to be released. Now it seems the series has come to an end which is a great pity. 10/10 for each epsiode and the whole series. Danish film making at its superbist!

I am a bit biased (fan of the series n the characters Carl, Assad n Rose) The film is very intriguing with enuff tension n a satisfying ending n it holds you in its grip from start to finish, with taut performances n some amazing cinematography. Inspite of the movie going backward n forward, it doesn't get incoherent at all. In the present we c two young girls enter an abortion centre n the flashback scene is of a man who puts his daughter in an institution as a punishment for being morally wrong. In the present, workers discover mummified bodies all connected with the same institution. While the mummified murder case is fresh, it is passed onto Department Q as the bodies has been ther since 12 years. While Assad has been promoted, Carl n Rose r still working in the basement aka Department Q pertaining to unresolved cases. Carl starts investigating n Assad too joins him as he has one more week left before his promotion.

If you haven't seen the previous episodes, I strongly suggest you do. It explains the bound between the two protagonists. Once again Department Q delivers an emotional and strongly written police adventure. By now it's hard to imagine a movie in these series without the constant switch between past and present. It's an interesting way to uncover the timeline and the motives of each character. It just works really well. Is it the best one in these series? Probably not. But it's still worth your time, even if you haven't seen the previous three films. I hope there will be more of these.
